Question
- Mailchimp double-opt in with Zapier
- Can I use Mailchimp's double-opt in with Thinkific?
Solution
The double opt-in feature will need to be turned off in Zapier when creating a zap between Thinkific and Mailchimp. If the double opt-in is enabled, a student will be added into the audience in Mailchimp, however they will not be sent a confirmation email.
More information on the double opt-in feature is available in Mailchimp's article: Double opt-in with Mailchimp.
If you would like students to agree to be added to your mailing list, we recommend incorporating this into your Terms of Use and make this a required checkbox on your sign up page. You can learn how to set that up in our article: Terms of Service and Privacy Policy Pages.
